#

@olive gull game is p2p, if host leaves - everyone disco. You would get a message - host disconnected. If host ragequits with alt+f4 - you get no message.

#

@shut carbon no solution, known. No one knows when its fixed.

Hey everyone, I haven't played RoR for like 6 months, just reinstalled and i'm getting absolutely trash FPS on PC. Talking like ~15fps on the first level. I have a 1080ti and an i9 so I would not assume hardware is the issue. Any pointers?

steady topaz
#

@eternal furnace disable vsync ingame and in your nvidia control panel. Also set "performance" power consumption profile.
Update gpu drivers.

#

Have done all of those unfortunately, no difference 😦

Hey guys

#

I just installed risk of rain 2 and it won't run at all :/

#

i just get this message on start up and then it crashes into program won't respond.

#

I've tried disabling anti virus, running in compatibility with windows 7, updating graphics driver, reinstalling, verifying cache, running as admin. I'm not sure what to do anymore

tardy halo
#

You might have to install some visual studios plugin

fiery condor
#

where do i set my region

#

like is there a role for that or do i just add it to my nickname for this server

steady topaz
#

@fiery condor There is no such roles. You can add it to your nickname on this server. Or you can just specify it when you host a game and share it in lfg channels.

#

@eternal furnace check that your game runs on correct gpu.

fiery condor
#

imo there should be region roles, so people not mentioning it would be less of a problem, just click the name and decide if ull have a good connection

#

so chars dont work well when host is far away

steady topaz
#

@fiery condor this is exactly my reasoning behind suggestion in modmail to moderators to consider.. so long ago, when the game came into EA.
The answer was something like i gave you before.

fiery condor
#

someone should notice this xD

steady topaz
#

@fiery condor there will be decent lobby system in next update in august. So i guess this kinda counts as a solution. So fr stating your region when you host a game seems sufficient enough. But not alot of ppl use it.

I can't play the game at all, mouse doesn't work on the menu screen. I have controllers plugged in. Need an option that doesn't mean unplugging my peripherals. It's a pain to get to, and no other game (that isn't a broken mess anyway) requires that. Is there a solution? I can't even navigate the menu to select controls. It shows text over top of text in the lower right corner saying controller detected or something.

#

@pallid ibex I can send a file or something to your team if you need it. Just DM me, tried to stream it the other day and ended up with having to run a different game. Would be awesome to get fixed. Seems like a lot of fun and my friends have been playing it.

@dense wasp

#

Going live so I'll be away for a few but will check back for DM or what not, thank you!

mild ridge
#

@lean gate if you want to disable devices without physically unplugging them you might be able to do it via the device manager. after we overhauled the ui to get rid of the cursor-based navigation when using a gamepad (which I guess is just not a good thing for gamepad menus) the game now has to disable the cursor when it detects you are trying to make an input using a gamepad.

steady topaz
#

Ghor, hi. Could you explain to me how to read crashdumps? What program are you useing?
There were some reports from people who cant run the game at all, and logfile points to d3d11 unable to read memory bit. Couldnt figure it out myself.

mild ridge
#

@steady topaz we use Visual Studio 2017

steady topaz
#

Alraight, thanks! Could you get a look on that file with your expirienced eye?

mild ridge
#

yeah, it's loading. takes a little while

#

@steady topaz this seems to be an issue that's happening while Unity is trying to send commands to the GPU. My best guess is that the graphics drivers need to be updated and next best guess is that DirectX needs to be updated.

steady topaz
#

Done both of those. Didnt help sadly. We kinda tryed everything that come to mind based on previous succesfull fixes. I have no more ideas on how to approach that, that's why i asked.

mild ridge
#

in more rare cases there are memory corruptions that can happen due to RAM overclocking, which a lot of people may not know that they have enabled. If the game mostly runs fine but seems to crash randomly that makes it a more likely culprit.

#

motherboard BIOS being out-of-date has also been a cause of similar crashes/corruptions

steady topaz
mild ridge
#

I'd need to see a crash dump for that case

#

is that the one?

steady topaz
#

It was the crashdump for that case

#

GP60 2PE
Windows 8.1 64-bit (6.3, Build 9600)
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4200H CPU @ 2.80GHz (4 CPUs), ~2.8GHz

d3d11: attempt to lock null buffer
d3d11: failed to create buffer (target 0x1 mode 3 size 216400) [0x887A0005]

#

All of them have very different pc specs, couldnt figure out the pattern.

mild ridge
#

it's worth mentioning that other games running unity w/ directx11 will probably be suffering from the same problem

#

like subnautica, for example

#

I often find solutions by searching for the same issue but for other games

steady topaz
#

I also asked about that, they say that it isnt the case.

mild ridge
#

weird

#

Would you mind uploading the output_log.txt file? It shouldn't be too far from the crash dump

#

Oh whoops

#

Looks like you got it

steady topaz
#

hehe 😛

mild ridge
#

Sorry kinda trying to multitask here

steady topaz
#

I know, i know. And i feel very bad, distracting you here.

mild ridge
#

No worries at all

mild ridge
#

after a lot of searching I can't really find anything that's immediately helpful, unfortunately. the issue seems to be some sort of incompatibility between this version of unity and this version of the graphics driver

#

looking up the error code with the microsoft error lookup tool indiicates that directx sees the graphics device as being disconnected or otherwise disabled

#

Any plans on getting PS4 split screen up anytime soon?

lean gate
#

ahh bummer, ok then. Probably going to refund for now. I'll keep an eye on patch notes for future updates because yea, that makes it so I can't even start the game.

steady topaz
#

@lean gate
Wouldn't recommend to refund, the game is super great and if that's not enough - the price will be slightly higher after relise. This is just an inconvinience, they probabbly will fix that after relise.

Question: I lost most of my progress on xbox one how would I go about getting it back or do I just need to play through and unlock it all again?

@steady topaz Well, it's one that makes it unplayable for me so... lol. I'll pay more for it, the sale price is like 5 bux difference so don't care about that. I wasn't trying to be rude either, sorry if it came across that way.

steady topaz
#

@worthy marsh there is an issuse with that on xbox i think. Alot of people reported same happens to them. We dont know how to fix that yet.

worthy marsh
#

Well time to grind thank you for your help, I wish you the best in finding a solution

steady topaz
#

Unfortunatly i have 0 idea on what could be done with that. I dont have an xbox. It probabbly will be patched out later.

Hey, I don't know how to display a problem here, but here it is. So, I have been trying to play multiplayer with a friend for a couple months now, but we just cant seem to join each other. We make a private lobby, but when we try to join each other, nothing happens, we are just stuck on the multiplayer menu. I can't even join a quickplay, I press the option once, and it comes up with, "not in quickplay queue." and just keeps loading until it sends me back the the multiplayer menu. My friend has the same exact problem. We have checked the file integrity, checked the command prompt making sure it's both private and public, uninstalled and reinstalled the game, restarted my pc many times considering this has been happening for months, looked up if other people had the same problem, and my friend saw that other people were, but never had a solution.

steady topaz
#

@soft heath that sounds like NAT problem. Game needs 7777 port open, make shure your routers allow to forward data on that port and also on 27015, 27016 for steam and dedicated servers.
Check that firewalls allow the game to send and recive data, turn it off to test.
Finally there is some workarounds as direct connection and lan emulation.

soft heath
#

Alright, ill see if any of that works

soft heath
#

I see your ssolution, but at the end it says we both need to be in the same network, we live in different houses

#

@steady topaz

#

We tried it anyway, but it didn't work

minor quest
#

so.. I've NEVER had any issues with RoR2 throughout my time playing it, however a recent update (I have no clue how recent it was) basically made my game crash on startup, I've already tried validating my local game files and I just completely tried to redownload it to no avail. Any help would greatly be appreciated.

steady topaz
#

@soft heath same network means that you need to create your virtual network and be online in it. It creates a virtual lan network between you, but it uses internet connection. It doesnt matter where you phisically are.
What exactly didnt work with that?

soft heath
#

So, one of us were in a private game, and the other type the command in, but we weren't able to join the other

steady topaz
#

@minor quest read messages above to get some idea what goes on with that issue. And when you're done - drop your logfile, crashdump and system specs here so devs could get a look into that.
C:/Users/your_pc_username/AppData/Local/Temp/Hopoo Games, LLC/Risk of Rain 2 the files are called output_log.txt and crash.dmp

#

@soft heath got time to test it with me?

soft heath
#

sure

#

should we join a call?

steady topaz
#

ill dm you in 10 min

soft heath
#

ok

minor quest
#

uhhhhhh I was reading up in chat I don't see how I'd grasp what's going on.

#

because there's no crashlogs

#

so yeah something's screwy, my guess something's not "crashing" but closing it upon booting which makes no sense

#

okay now it runs
why

steady topaz
#

You would still have output_log.txt, drop it here.

@mild ridge @pallid ibex @carmine arrow So I have an issue playing RoR2 exclusively where my PC will randomly just shut down while the game is running. For some info on this, it doesn't only happen while I'm in the middle of a fight with proc chains going off etc, in fact the past 3 times it's happened has been inside of the Blue Portal zone while idle. I have a very high end PC (specs below) and I've monitored my temps as well while playing the game and I've never seen them be at a concernable level. Are there any known issues with AMD that may be causing this?

uncut aurora
#

devs have pings turned off by the way

marsh gyro
#

I know that this could happen if your PSU is failing but considering I've only ever had the issue with RoR2 I'm not sure it's that

#

PC specs: Tomahawk MAX mobo/Vega 64 GPU/ Ryzen 7 2700x CPU/ 3200mhz 8x2GB RAM/ 650w Gold standard PSU

#

Graphics options also turned to the lowest settings/off in most departments (though even with this I regularly drop to 20-30 fps during wave9+ fights)

steady topaz
#

@marsh gyro goto your bios and disable XMP profile for your ram.

I'm having an issue on Xbox.. Nearly all my progress on the game is gone. I've got commando, mult, huntress, engi, artificer and merc but they've lost all their unlockable skills, i need to find all the items, logbooks and artifacts again and I need to do some challenges for items again

#

I played it just last night and did two artifacts in a 23stage run..

#

Realised it's a bug as my friends not got this issue, my bad 😫

tranquil hatch
#

It's quite alright, Marlo
a lot of folks have reported a similar issue and we're unsure of quite how to resolve it
the devs are doubtless working hard to figure out the root cause, as this is quite the devastating bug

orchid flame
#

I just hope theyll find a fix for it so I won't be haunted by future data wipes, although on the other hand it will definitely keep me grinding the game XD

@steady topaz It isn't; it stays between 3200 and 3300 MHz

#

Well, i am not shure what this could be. Drop your logfile and crahdump here for devs to look into.
C:/Users/your_pc_username/AppData/Local/Temp/Hopoo Games, LLC/Risk of Rain 2 the file called output_log.txt

C:/Users/your_pc_username/AppData/Local/Temp/Hopoo Games, LLC/Risk of Rain 2/Crashes

#

Last suggestion i can make is to try latest gpu drivers and then reverting for some versions back. But this wasnt a solution for anyone yet.

marsh gyro
#

Okay, where should I upload those files at for them?

#

Also I've played a few games since the shut down last occurred so would the incidents not being the most recent in the logs be an issue? *Though it was yesterday so it wouldn't be too deep and it should show it happening in the past as well

#

There is also no Crashes folder. I've found the output log though. @steady topaz

steady topaz
#

Drop logfile here, after it crashes. Do not rerun the game, as this log will be wiped. Crash.dmp should be crated hen you press on on error window.

marsh gyro
#

I've never had any error windows, just a straight PC power off. When/if it happens again I'll make sure to post the logs.

steady topaz
#

Sorry i think i mixed something up, I tought you were crashing, not shutting down.

You can deduce what happened before that shutdown.
Go to the Windows Start button and search "event viewer" > Windows Logs > Search for errors that happend arount that time when your pc shutdown. If its related to PSU - it will be marked as Critical. You need to find clossest error that happened before that and search for this error code id.

marsh gyro
#

Well it literally just happened again. Once again I was in the blue portal area, so that seems to be a common factor.

#

Here's the output log txt and I will take a look at the event viewer shortly

Hello, I'm having issue that I couldn't find a solution to on the web/ stickied answers around here.

I am unable to run the game in full screen mode. If I launch the game it will play music and if I run task manager I can see that my graphics card is processing the video but I see nothing except for that it is running. If I use alt+ tab it will show me it has a window but the window is "invisible" in that it just shows my desktop, however if I press alt+f4 it will close the game.

I have gotten to the point where I can press alt+enter to shrink the screen to about 1/4 the size of my monitor and it works I just fine. But as soon as I try to click the full screen option or change the resolution the game freezes, and I have to alt+f4 and then boot the game again and it's the same "empty screen issue"

I have attempted resets, reinstalls (of steam and the game), running as admin, verifying integrity of my game files, I have updated my graphics card driver and even tried to mess with display settings as well as booting the game on geoforce experiences launcher. None of these work.

The game is currently installed on my SSD, I have an Asus predator with a Nvidia 960m.

Any suggestions would be appreciated, thank you!

@craggy socket i have heard of this problem before but since i play on pc i am unaware of how or why this happens. I do not think there currently is a way to restore you're save data on console but i might be wrong and i am sure the dev's are working diligently to fix the issue. I would recommend that you ask somebody in the "bug-reports-console" section to see if there is anything you can do but if nothing can be done it is easier to unlock everything again if you just play on drizzle with artifact of command. Sorry I couldn't help though.

Could anyone help me with mods? Once I paste my bepin/r2api into my ror2 file, the game won’t boot, I get a Bad image error message, once I delete the winhttp.dll file, the game will boot but the mods won’t enable, even though they’re still in the ror2 file

even with no mods in the bepin>plugins folder, it will not boot

Question about mods, My friend and I have the same mods yet it says both of us are running on different versions (New/old), any idea what's going on?

near gust
#

Yes, one sec

#

If you are struggling playing with people in private lobbies:
If you are using Steam Build ID mod or UnmoddedClients and that everyone have the mods, remove them.
You don't need any kind of id build spoofing if everyone have the same modding setup.
If you want to play with people that have the mods but also with people who doesnt. Proceed as follow :
Download https://thunderstore.io/package/vis-eyth/UnmoddedClients/
Open the in-game console and type this : build_id_steam, then invite people who are unmodded.
Then, do the same with modded people, by typing : build_id_mod

Hi

#

I have probem to play private with my friends

#

When we try to start the game (to be excat is after we get into the ready lobby) it all stuck

#

most of the time , the host can getinto the game , but it seems other players just stuck in the black screen

steady topaz
#

@snow kettle Open 7777 port. Allow the game to use connection in brandmauer. Enable upnp in router.
Try DMZ

If nothing helps use radminvpn lan-emulation.
to host a game open console ||+ctrl+alt `|| and execute ||`host 1`|| to join a game open console ||+ctrl+alt|| and execute ||connect x.x.x.x:7777`|| where x.x.x.x is the ip provided by radminvpn.
Game can connect without steam useing direct connection, this helps when for some reason steam servers are laggy, use your external ip instead. Host doesnt need to use commands, just to create private game in this case.
Edit: discord fucked up formating, fixed with spoilers.

Is there any way to do cross platform between Xbox and pc? Noob question I know but the articles I find on google are always old

steady topaz

@quartz raft hard NO

#

@snow kettle that's probabbly the core of your isse, let yur friends check the ping to you when you trying to connect. Command: ping Return: rtt=999ms wich is the delay in miliseconds (less=better, <300 - playable)

quartz raft
#

ok, Figured id at least try and ask, Thanks anways @steady topaz

steady topaz
#

Devs plan on supporting game after relise, but they never stated that there will be crossplay of any kinds. This was asked to them many-many times, the answer is - likely no, even after relise. This requres them to implement middle server that connect every platform, wich is not easy at all. And all platforms have different versions and some performance advantages and dissadvantages that render whole idea almost undoable.
So.. no.

#

@quick tusk this guy somehow bugged out his lobby. Maybe intentionally.

#

@quick tusk i think those people use mods that let more than 4 ppl in and edit out some parts of it that allows them to go to quickplay. This is forbidden by devs. You can do whatever you want with your game, as long as its free for others and it doesnt affect unmodded players.
This particular guy is determined.. he's there for quete some time aready. 3 days in a row. I see him for couple of hours.

Ban command seems to do nothing with quickplay. So only thing for now - avoid this lobby.

Last week it was working fine, so maybe it's due to an update, no idea at all

#

And since the game doesn't generate log files (or I haven't found them), it makes it difficult to know the root cause of the issue

pure fjord
#

is there a fix for the mp lobby issue?

orchid flame
#

does anyone know why since the last update I can no longer join lobbies with my friends it just doesn't work

#

we send each invites and none of it does anything

#

@orchid flame your steam might be offline go into steam overlay and make sure you have "online" selected

I'm trying to run a dedicated server. The server itself runs and I'm able to connect using connect localhost:25565, however when my friends try joining with my public IP, they get an error as follows: ChannelBuffer SendBytes no space on unreliable channel 6. When I connect through the Steam server page and using the connect command with my public IP also results in this error. My router does forward the 25565 port and the server appears on the Steam server page, but the connection always fails when it's not me connecting through localhost.

hollow mango
#

Okay so going back to the default port 27015 allows me to connect, but why is that the only port that works? I've bound a different port to the server and that port is open on my router so it's odd that no other port works.

#

i have no clue, i didnt even know you could run a dedicated server so you know more than i do

@pulsar chasm i am too

tranquil hatch
#

all of you:
reset steam

steady topaz
#

Steam servers ushually get maintenance on wednesday. Restart your steam.

#

@hollow mango open 7777 27015 27016 ports for dedicated.
Likely you got some program that already uses your 25565 port.

Make shure that you didnt mistake:

sv_port 27015; // The port that the server will bind to. You cannot have multiple server instances with overlapping ports.
For:
steam_server_query_port 27016;
steam_server_steam_port 0;

#

@pure fjord connection to host is bad, you're the client here. Check your firewall setup, allow brandmouer data passage for the game, open 7777 port in your router, enable upnp, try dmz.
If this doesnt help at all - try direct connection or lan emulation.

#

@orchid flame cant dm you.

hollow mango
#

@steady topaz I know for a fact that the port 25565 was not being used by any other application. I'm just going to stick with 27015

problem, a week ago the game was running perfectly fine, solid 60 with vsync and about 100 without but today game is unplayably laggy.
i tried turning graphics settings down the absolute minimum with no results, the only thing that does help is changeing the resolution to the lowest, something like 300x250?
i have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, freeing up space on the drive, restarting computer multiple times to no avail.

Hey, me and my friend trying to play together but can't seem to be able to...
he keeps seeing this:

#

I can't see his player avatar

#

We tried:

  1. switches hosts (he instead of me) - same result.
  2. restart PC.
  3. restart steam
  4. verify game
  5. reinstall game
  6. turned off antivirus completely including the firewall (and windows firewall)
#

The problem is from 6 month ago by the way...

#

we reinstalled the game today to give it another shot... but the bug still exist

steady topaz
#

@vernal marsh tryed direct or lan emulation connection?

vernal marsh
#

@steady topaz don't really know what you mean, connect through steam, what do you mean by direct? and no, we are not on the same network so no lan

#

and what is "lan emulation connection"? is there like a program that emulate lan? if so, what is it?

brazen rivet
#

is there a connection problem right now or smth?

steady topaz
#

@brazen rivet game have no servers, its p2p connection. ushually restarting steam fixes those.

#

I can't join friends in multiplayer. we tried restarting steam, we tried joing from steam, clipboard lobby, restarting comps, inviting eachother to different lobbies. Restarting game. Nothing.

#

#

Any mods?

orchid flame
#

#

Hmm, I've not had any trouble connection to anyone and they haven't to me either

#

I'm gonna pm you a clipboard code, see if you and yall can join it?

#

Oh also, have you verified your game files?

orchid flame
#

we got it working

#

2 of us had to restart comps completely

steady topaz
#

@orchid flame that's might be temportal issue with your provider. Try restarting your routers when this happens again. Its definetly not the game, something wrong with connection route.
If direct doesnt work - try lan emulation.

Agreed, but I needed to confirm if Unity itself was the problem, and there aren't that many easy to get free Unity games around

Sometimes you need to taint your PC to validate a bug 😂

I don't know what Unity games use shaders, and I'm not really willing to pay a 60€ game just to check if it's a Unity bug or a RoR2 bug

plush tangle
#

I just got my friend risk of rain 2 to play with us, but he can't join our lobby, any solutions?

coarse nebula
#

@plush tangle I'm assuming this is PC?

plush tangle
#

Yeah it's pc, sorry i didn't specify

#

I tried inviting him through steam and the lobby code but both doesn't work

coarse nebula
#

Have other members of your party tried being the host of the party? I had a similar problem the other day where my friend couldn't join me. I had to forward some known ports to change my NAT type and then we were all good.

#

On a similar note, I have had no luck inviting via the lobby code, I usually click the + in the lobby and then click "invite" by my friends name

plush tangle
#

we both tried hosting but that didn't work, so let me try using a 3rd friend to host it real quick

#

ok so that didn't work either

coarse nebula
#

I'm unsure if network status is a known issue for this game, but once we forwarded the recommended "steam" ports for Multiplayer (I personally used the COD MW ports) we were fine

plush tangle
#

so when we join his lobby, he can't see that we joined

#

and when we had him start it, the 2 of us that don't have the problem, see a black screen and then we are kicked to the main menu

coarse nebula
#

Hmm, that is very odd. You are able to connect to other people's lobbies without your friend? Or you can't connect to other lobbies either?

plush tangle
#

Yeah so the friend that can't join I'll call him T

#

So T can't join, but my friend and I can join and start with each other perfectly fine

#

It seems that T is just the problem

coarse nebula
#

Sounds like T has a closed NAT connection, which can cause lobbies to crash (once again, only speaking from experience)

#

Let me find you the steam ports page and I will post it here for you to provide to T

plush tangle
#

Alrighty thanks!

#

Omg, he fixed it by restarting his steam

#

sorry for the trouble!

coarse nebula
#

No worries! For future reference, if you ever do want to forward ports to open connections, it seems a portforward page was created for this game!

plush tangle
#

Thanks for letting me know!

coarse nebula
#

Cheers!

steady topaz
#

@coarse nebula @plush tangle Game uses 7777 by default. And 27015 for dedicated, 27016 for steam.

@mild ridge Hi, this crash (Files above ⬆️ ) seems to be common thing. Log says 0x00007FFCEC09E5E0 (d3d11) CreateDirect3D11SurfaceFromDXGISurface
And i found on net:

UnityException error is thrown on creating material preset of Tilemap

Steps to repro:

  1. Create a new project.
  2. GameObject > 2D Object > Tilemap.
  3. Create material preset from the burger menu.

Actual Result:
UnityException error is thrown in the console.

I have no idea if its related at all...
But info i found about that says:

This issue has been resolved. This will be fixed in the new release of the TMP package which will be version 1.5.0-preview.3 for Unity 2018.4 and 2.1.0-preview.3 for Unity 2019.x.

Is it the same engine version we have now, or there will be another update for that?

@steady topaz I've been scrolling for about 20 minutes without finding something useful. I just reinstalled the game as well. Didn't help unfortunately.

@orchid flame The pic comes from channel to wich we dont have access.

This happens because you as a client cant reliably connect to the host.

Game doesnt have some central server, its p2p connection type. This means the clients connecting to the host and host passes data and sync them together.

Game uses steam api to connect clients easyer, but sometimes steam servers acting up.
Restarting steam for everyone in your group ushually helps.

But quickplay will connect you to anyone in the world. If person you're connect to have some problems with ports, firewalls, or too far from you - connection is unstable and might result in tottal desync and disconnect.

Use #lfg-pc-ror2 to find someone closer to you. Or check the ping before starting game in quickplay. (You need to open the console with ``+ctrl+altand executeping` command that shows rtt=999ms wich is the ping to host and back in miliseconds.)

i really cannot help you.
i know for a fact about risk of rain one that unlocks earned while playing with drizzle do not remain unlocked.
i do not know if the mod changes this.
perhaps it does.
perhaps some error happened with your save file.
perhaps you opened the game with steam and not with the modloader, which calls up an entirely different save file.
i dont know.
i hope you're able to figure it out.

@steady topaz thanks! restarting my steam client worked

@shell token no official news, that i know about. I dont know how connection realised on consoles, but i am shure its similar to pc. Game supports reconnect. So if nothing happened to the host (crash, intentinall quit, power outage, etc) you should be able to reconnect.
Most of the times - people just leave host for no reason (or when they died) and doesnt care what happens to clients, and yes - if host leaves, clients disconnected.

#

@placid fractal laptop or pc? Check that your cpu core speed stays relatively the same during gameplay.

@steady topaz heyo I appreciate the response. Ill try to post a video here soon but its definitely not a host disconnection issue as I am play exclusively with a close buddy and we have been tackling this problem for a few days now. Again, really appreciate the feedback!

steady topaz
#

@shell token so, you should be able to reconnect if nothing happened to host connection to the internet. That's kinda odd. Something like that was happening because game used steam server whole time and when something happened with steam server, a little hickup - game seen it and kicked everyone, including host. This is easy to track down as this event gets written into logfile. And it was fixed on pc for shure.
I dont know if something similar happens to consoles aswell.

For some reason for this game specifically I can't install or update server instances. I've tried restarting pc, wifi, steam, etc... I've tried running as administrator and running normally. I've also tried varying install locations. I can install and update other games such as killing floor 2 just fine. When I run the updater.bat it logs into steam anonymously (I tried with my account as well that owns the game) and then it stops. Anyone know what could be causing this?

it creates only a steamapps folder with a libraries.vfd in it and nothing else

There was some problem reports with RTX series gpu, dont know how to fix that, some people say that game barely uses the cpu and gpu alike.
Try to update gpu driver.
Disable vsync ingame.
Disable vsync in nvidia control panel and set performance preset.
If you have some fancy mouse, update its software too. This one helps with high polling factor issue. (Lags should appear only if you move your mouse in this case)

@ancient plover restart your steam, you and your friends.

@full olive you need some temperature monitoring software, i am not very familiar with those. Its most likely that your pc is fine. The thing you talking about called thermal throttling.

in the beginning before my laptop gets too hot it seems fine

then once it does get hot that's when issues arise

ancient plover

we'll try that in a bit, thank you

steady topaz
#

@ancient plover this looks like connection issue, profiles or other game settings shouldnt be a problem in any way.

#

@full olive It indeed looks like thermal throtling, but laptop of this tier should be well above the capability to sustain decent 60fps thru first loop of gameplay.

If it is indeed the thermal throtling - your cpu should slowdown core speed and this will dramatically affect the performance of this game. Ror2 is made on unity engine that is not known for its multicore performance, so it uses single core for the most part and if this core speed gets down - game freezes.

You need to check the temps, but you also can check if your cpu core speed isnt droping much.
On this vide you can see core speed going up and down. This cpu-z program is free and easy to use.
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/559902278018924557/703132048029777930/video0.mov

#

Check that your core speed stays relatively the same before you start the run and after you see those fps drops.

im using a driver version from may

i swear it said may when i rolled it back but the number sounds right, not at my pc to check at the moment tho

i dont know where youre seeing the 451.xx tho i get 23.21.13.9261

If so, can I refund my game

It's now been months since I've been able to play... And not a great experience support wise

steady topaz

You do realise that it was 4 man development group that delivered this game to us right? How you expect them to meet theyr goals every timeand never miss it for year straight, add new unplanned features and still fix every small bug as №1 priority?

You shouldnt be able to refund your game if you played more than a couple of hours as per steam policy. And you read and agreed to license of this game wich says basically - there will be bugs.

Just disable your controller or unplug it. If its vjoy - uninstall it.
You treat such a good devs as some greedy company. And demand them to fix something that is fixable and well known to comunity, the fix of wich is pinned here and was directly advised to for each and every one who asked about how to fix that.

civic wind
#

Sorry but in an age where joysticks are quite normal, asking people to unplug them every time they need to play the game is not really a fix.

#

It should not be a major problem to fix and will solve the issue for a lot of people.

steady topaz
#

joystics that do that - have non 0 input that game picksup as user input and that disables keyboard and mouse so user could play with other input device.

civic wind
#

You're basically asking every player of major games to unplug gear that sometimes may not be easy to unplug. I have a full cockpit setup and can't just unplug things.

You know what.. devs allow anyone to change game code aslong as it is non profit and non malicious.
Why wouldnt you fix that, if its so easy huh?

Also did you just fuckin "navy seal copypasta" Goo?

Point is, game is built on unity. I have a lot of unity games. I don't have these issues.

#

Own code. Own engine. Fine, maybe some kudos there that it's not trivial

#

Not own engine. Known implementations. Probably slightly trivial to make the game not completely break on launch.

#

I'm not asking that it works with full hotas... I'm asking the game launches, and is playable with normal keyboard and mouse.

#

well you seem to think quite highly of yourself go fix it then

#

If you're such a talented software engineer

#

it should be rather easy for you yes?

#

Or can you not deliver those goods just useless comments?

the ror2 modding community is quite active and quite friendly, even to a stuck up ass like yourself

#

civic wind
#

You suggest a mod... Happy to try the mod

#

Guy comes and asks for help to play game, so game can be playable by more.people... gets told he's up himself. Interesting take.

steady topaz
#

You have your answer on how it happens, why and how to fix that.
What else you expect from us?
Devs cant just go about every small issue and fix it right away as they have set deadlines and promises to deliver. They never failed to do so and way more people have 0 issues with the game or dont care about minor issues.

The person you just tlked to have way-way bigger issues with the game than you do and yet, he's not the one who's made a scene.

Last time - your input device have non 0 input, game picks it as - you want to play from that device and disables your keyboard/mouse.
Get rid of that device, (likely v-joy) uninstall or disable it from device manager. If you're so good at "enterprise software" - write an macros that does it for you when you run the game. If you care enough - fix it yourself and deliver a mod for everyone like you.
If not - quit this bs and wait till relise. Devs fix theyr mistakes and bugs each time game gets updated. And there will be support past relise.

civic wind

sometimes you need to at least try to have an understanding of the issue yourself

I won't be the last person to have the game and experience this

then navigate the menus with keyboard

age old tactic: uninstall and reinstall

Have attempted that previously in hope it was config issue.

#

well then I dont know how to help you at that point you just need to start trying things out

#

pinpoint the issue's cause and then we might be of more help to you

civic wind
#

Appreciated.

#

And while I understand you may be super passionate about the game @steady topaz understand that just because the issue is not important to you, does not mean it's not important.

The fact you have a "copypasta" response for this, says to me I'm not the first to ask this. I'm also one of the few who probably do end up here rather than those who install the game, think it's fucked, and get an immediate refund.

That hurts an indie developer more in the long run. I've waited time before clawing my cash back, but easily can do that if I complain, I don't want to but may have to.

#

And despite being in the software industry for over a decade... I play this game for fun. If I tried to fix everyone's problems in my spare time, then I'd have no downtime.

hopoo28.03.2019:
If you have VJOY installed, please uninstall it!

That's my copypasta response. I never had to paste it to anyone twice before.

It always gone like this.

Ive been playing for a while and randomly in a match the game will crash. most of the time I get a unity crash error but sometimes it just shuts down. The game runs fine and Ive done a few things like lowering graphics and updating my drivers. is there a fix for this?

full olive
#

if you're getting unity crash errors it could be something with the code. Have you messed with the coding/installed any mods?

steady topaz
#

I dont think that's the case. There were reports about unexpected crashes that seems to be very random.
No one knows why this caused or how to fix this.

Common log entrys:
d3d11: failed to create buffer
d3d11: failed to create staging 2D texture
nvwgf2umx.dll caused an Access Violation (0xc0000005)

But also there is some fixable issues tied to cpu usage. I asked for logfiles to check on that.

jolly beacon
#

Hey, can I ask for help with mods here?

hybrid onyx
#

Hey, I'm also getting that Access Violation error. Anything I can do? My game runs well for like 15 mins at a time, then crashes for no apparent reason

steady topaz
#

Nothing helpfull that i know of.
We need devs to look into this issue. Pretty shure after 1.0 relise on august 11th devs gonna look for comunity bugreports as they ushually did.
I dont know if the engine will be updated again, but anyway you definetly should check if you getting crashes after that update and report it here to the devs with game generated log and crash files.

Logfile
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\Hopoo Games, LLC\Risk of Rain 2
Error and crash.dmp should be there too, but if not - check
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Hopoo Games, LLC\Risk of Rain 2

A pic of whole screen with that unity engine error message would be helpfull too.

Hello everyone, my update downloaded to fix progress, but my progress is not fixed, I’m missing all of my artifacts and some characters still. Thanks

You won't be able to get the progress back because the game overwrote the data making it impossible to retrieve. The update just stopped this happening again

I'm not sure if this belongs here or in #ror2-bug-reports-pc but it doesn't seem like a bug exactly, and so far I haven't been able to find anyone with a similiar issue. I'm having a problem where after I stop moving forward, the game will act as if I still have the forward key pressed and keep moving me forward for a few seconds, meaning the only way I can stop moving is to press backward. This only happens when my forward key is bound to W.

steady topaz
#

@lone haven Some of your input devices have non 0 input that game picks as "go forward" Unplug anything that isnt keyboard/mouse to confirm.

Hey wondering if someone can help me solve my controller problem, with keyboard and mouse when you display the inventory screen you can use the mouse to hover over items and inspect the item description, but with controller it seems theres no such function, is it natively supported anywhere in controller mode?

#

I'm also using steam controller and can bind buttons, if that helps

steady topaz
#

@wild brook
Check that config file:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Risk of Rain 2\Risk of Rain 2_Data\Config have resolution set to your monitor resolution 1280x1024x75;

Remove userdata to other folder and try to run the game.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\YOUR STEAM ID HERE\632360
Move it back after, it contains your saves. (Would be a good idea to make a backup)

wild brook
#

thank you, a combination of uninstalling / reinstalling / deleting and editing config file resolution finally worked

#

seems like it got stuck at 144x1 for some reason

steady topaz
#

Yeah, i instantly tought that this is what happened, because this happened before to me with other unity game. Glad i could help.

Hey, PS4 player here. The rampant disconnects are destroying the player experience. My friends on I will constantly be on the verge of beating a tough teleporter boss, only one survivor left and then that survivor will disconnect, ruining the run for everyone. Sometimes, everyone but the host will disconnect and then in the process of us reconnecting, the host will drop, ruining the run. We are at the point where we dictate the pace of the run based on the likelihood of a disconnect - hitting the teleporter sooner than usual so we can get a revive on someone who wont hopefully disconnect. It is a truly unenjoyable way to play the game and I hope these issues are addressed in the 1.0 update. On the plus side, it has successfully convinced me to buy the game on PC and Switch in hopes of a networking system that isnt prone to failure.

does anyone here know how to fix Power Limit Throttling?

placid mulch

Guess I'll just ask on the subreddit

placid mulch

argh I'm just an idiot. I just realised I can bind the select button to keyboard tab instead of controller select button, then when I press select on the controller the game will think I'm pressing tab and switch to keyboard mode. Thought of the idea halfway through writing a post on the subreddit but I'm at the office so I'll have to remember to try it when I get home

Can anyone give me an example of how to use mods with a server? I've tried a few things but they never seem to be noticed by the launcher. @ me if you send something on this, ty 😄

@full olive change your battery settings to maximum performance and do that for power management in your graphics cards settings as well

night matrix

when starting the game, first the black screen then the Unity error, how do I fix it?

There should be a crash report in C:/Users/17D3~1/AppData/Local/Temp/Hopoo Games, LLC/Risk of Rain 2/Crashes

but try restarting your computer

hmm, doing some research on the internet

InitializeEngineGraphics failed

near gust
#

Hmm, I'm out of ideas. Hopefully the devs can make something out of your crashlogs

compact pewter
#

Verify integrity of the games files, use DDU then reinstall graphics drivers, reinstall direct x dependencies, uninstalling and reinstalling, etc....

#

can all be possible fixes

steady topaz
#

@night matrix
Its one of the crashes that started to happening after engine update. We dont know how to fix that yet. We need devs to look into that.

#

@near gust Any chance you know if there will be another engine update on 1.0? asked devs but had no answer.

near gust
#

have not heard anything

steady topaz
#

@full olive I wouldnt recomend doing that, chances you fry your pc. Ushually you increase voltage in bios.
But that issue with bad performance comes from game engine, not from your hardware. Other games if fine, right? Dont do that.

merry knoll
#

hey #ror2-tech-support, What causes progress to keep reseting? Every time I boot up the game on PC I have to make a new profile.

@merry knoll Dm me your profile C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\YOUR STEAM ID HERE\632360\remote\UserProfiles

full olive
#

could me having an RGB keyboard have anything to do with it?

compact pewter
#

I doubt it

#

Even though it's probably unrelated, did you install the driver for your keyboard/mouse?

#

having windows autodownload it doesn't really work always

full olive
#

its a laptop

#

and a work mouse

#

I dont know if that changes anything

#

also I live in California where the average temp is >80 degrees

#

and my Package Temperature is at an average of 80 degrees Celsius

#

and now it cant even run fucken terraria without constant stuttering

steady topaz
#

@full olive Rgb takes barely a 3v and uses this voltage very efficiently to produce light, and not heat.
You should check that your cpu core speed is not dropping down while you playing. Either voltage or thermal throttling gonna slow it down.

full olive
#

Yeah I saw power limit throttling pop up a few times

#

I have intel XTU pulled up in the background and it seems any time I have a lagspike it's because of that

#

except terraria just lags randomly now

#

it never used to do that

#

like ever.

#

none of my games ever used to lag this horribly

#

Any time I see terraria lagging it doesnt mention power limit throttling or thermal throttling

#

and it's not like im getting bad framerates for terraria

#

it just stutters and every time terraria stutters it will freeze for a second

steady topaz
#

terraria barrely uses any gpu, its most likely cpu choking under heat/voltage or both at same time. You need to check your laptop for thermal issues. Clean the fans,, ducts, reapply thermal interfaces, check on corrosion.
laptops arent easy to disassemble, it takes knowledge and some skill. its best to give it to some service.

full olive
#

Well all services are closed right now

#

atleast that I know of

steady topaz
#

I dont really know what is best to suggest to you. Id clean it myself because i have done that before and there is plenty of disassembly guides. But insides of such devices are very thin and small. You wont be able to fix something that actually corroded or gone bad, like capacitors.
All you could do without knowledge and insturments is to clean it from dust.

full olive
#

there's a shop open not too far from my house actually I might take it over there one of these days

compact pewter
#

Is your laptop plugged in while you use it?

#

laptops are shitty and you'll lag if they're not plugged into the charger usually

#

even if it's a $2000 gaming laptop

full olive
#

Yeah i have it plugged in

#

Could I possibly undervolt my cpu?

compact pewter
#

that wouldn't do anything

#

forget messing with voltage/overclocking stuff

#

your pc problems are in other areas

#

look at this guide

steady topaz
#

I really like one suggestion from this guide.

disable Spectre and Meltdown routines to increase CPU performance
you can increase CPU performance by disabling its protection mechanisms against Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities. it gives a small performance boost by trading off vulnerability

Basically - let your pc cook itself till solder meltdown.

#

Chances you get those are pretty low, but never 0.

orchid flame
#

Can anyone refer me to a guide on how I can fix my steam peer to peer? I've tried everything and nothing seems to work and I do kinda miss risk of rain quick join...

compact pewter
#

you probably need to port forward as the host or try an open nat

#

and people would only do that if they knew what they were doing

#

or if they ignored the warning completely

#

It's also under extra and not actually under fixes

steady topaz
#

I am not arguing that its useless guide, it just reminded me of those "optimising your pc to gaming" programs that did alot of stuff that have absolutely no positive effect, yet look cool and high-tech. This particular suggestion makes you open the gate for the trojan horse for 2 specific virus types that aims at your hardware. And the benefit from doing so is so small that it barely registred by performance tests, let alone even noticable.

compact pewter
#

He is playing the first game it seems

#

not the second game

orchid flame
#

I’ve since then tested it with a different computer on the same network and they don’t have the same issues

#

I honestly think it’s windows ten giving me shit

steady topaz
#

The program mentioned - could help with 1st game too.

compact pewter
#

yeah but honestly that should be a last resort

#

you shouldn't need to install such things to do multiplayer

orchid flame
#

Radmin is handy but I still miss the quick play

#

It’s not limited to ror2 either, I’ve got problems hosting barotrauma servers too

compact pewter
#

Yeah it's probably a bad router configuration

orchid flame
#

I might just balls to the wall fresh install windows because I can’t think of anything else

steady topaz
#

nah.. last resort is to write and ahk script that bruteforce reboot your router untill the connection session randomly falls on 1/4 gateway on provider network that actually lets you to use forwarded ports.
Tha'ts personal story for a while ago.

compact pewter
#

and while that program can bypass that you should probably learn to set up your router for port forwarding

orchid flame
#

Wait but that doesn’t make sense

steady topaz
#

^ same network on a different pc, that's suggests the router is fine.

orchid flame
#

How is the issue my router if my friend on his laptop on the same network can do what I can’t?

steady topaz
#

@orchid flame check that router got upnp option on

orchid flame
#

Yeah

compact pewter
#

because they're using the same port

#

upnp isn't safe so when you're done playing turn it back off

orchid flame
#

Hmm I’ll try that

#

Wait what are the dangers of turning it on?

steady topaz
orchid flame
#

Hey chief

#

lookin at my router

#

pretty sure it's on by default

steady topaz
#

Well this means the game asks your router to open ports that game needs whenever you trying to play.
Tell me more about issue you having. You're unable to connect to anyone or someone specific?

orchid flame
#

yeah just steam p2p issues

#

I get that wonky screen when I try to mutiplayer ror2 and barotrauma hosting is wacked

steady topaz
#

You mean any steam game that uses p2p?

orchid flame
#

pretty much

compact pewter
#

he can't connect to someone playing the same game on the same network as him

#

means port is being used already most likely

orchid flame
#

I also had problems doing a remote play to play crawl with my neighbor if that counts?

steady topaz
#

I dont get how, alot of games use that 7777 port, and even more uses range of ports. Upnp should allow games to pick other ports isnt it?

#

@orchid flame can you connect to my game rn?

orchid flame
#

kk

#

like ror2?

compact pewter
#

upnp allows dynamically opening of ports not dynamic reassigning afaik

steady topaz
#

He cant reach my server, i got 0 incoming packets. His external ip is also in ipv6.

#

Cant reach him, not shure if game can connect to ipv6 adres, but it tries. Same result.

compact pewter
#

@orchid flame do you have a single piece for your router or two parts?

steady topaz
#

@compact pewter netgear c7000v2

#

I assume that's his and not your router Goo lol

Hi, I just started getting this weird problem, me and my friends have tried hosting the game, and no matter who hosts, the one who gets invited suddenly can't attack enemies on stage 2.

#

Our game works fine on stage 1, and when we come to stage 2 the other just can't hit anything, the damage doesn't apply, you can't open any boxes/containers, but you can be damaged and attacked by all the enemies

steady topaz
#

@dire pike @acoustic sky
You have pretty much the same problem.
First restart your steam, you and your friends too.
Then make shure that your firewall have permission for ror2.
Forward 7777 port in your router. Allow upnp.
This ushually makes things work. But if you still unable to connect or connection is unreliable you can try to use direct connection or lan emulation.
